OK, I have set up a DNN 4.62 site, using the DNN standard portal skins and containers.  I've experimented with a bunch of the controls, figuring out how to edit text, titles, add pages, events, etc.

Now, I'd like to modernize the UI a little bit.  Where would I go to learn how to do something as seemingly simple as moving the menus to the upper right-hand location as they are on the http://www.dotnetnuke.com site?  How did they create the "downloads", "directory", "forum", etc. buttons ?  I don't mean creating the graphics, more along the lines of how did they create linked buttons beyond the basics?

Are these acts accomplished via skins, CSS, or voo-doo?  I've been having fun learning the enviornment, but now it's time to spruce things up a bit.

Thanks in advance for any pointers to tutorials, documentation, examples, etc.

a starting point will be the DotNetNuke skinning guide, that is available from the Documentation page in the Resources menu above. Another valuable source are the videos from www.dnncreative.com and there are a number of other web sites dedicated to skinning, have a look at the "Make it Hot" forum. In November a new book is announced to be published "DotNetNuke Skinning".
